Durham Safeguarding Children Partnership (DSCP) have been working with Durham County Council to launch a new awareness raising campaign for Private Fostering.
- Private fostering is an arrangement that occurs when a child under the age of 16 (or 18 if disabled) is cared for by someone other than their parent or a close relative for 28 consecutive days or more. A close relative is a grandparent, sibling, uncle or aunt or a step-parent.
Please help support us in raising awareness about Private Fostering by downloading and sharing digitally, or download/print and share at venues in your own community:
